SignalR between 2 asp.net core websites?

Question

User617328132 posted

I have two asp.net core websites, one in the public internet and the other inside the corporate intranet behind firewall. Now we have a need to get these two sites talking to each other in real time. So I started wondering would it be possible to use SignalR for communication, so that the intranet server opens the connection to the public server, and then using the opened connection to pass messages between the servers.

Any advice? Is it possible? And any good starting points for implementation are also welcome.

Hi 13th duke of wybourne,

According to your description, as far as I know, SignalR is usually use for communicate between server side and client side, so i think if use for communication of two sites, it is unsuitable. Here is the tutorial about signalr, please check:
